Spain's new policy to regularise all undocumented migrants sounded wonderful... until I realised it excluded Saharawis. I mean, how outrageous and cruel. #regularizacion2026 #migrantsrights www.euractiv.com/news/statele...

Can't wait to get started on this project using information from poetry to improve climate modelling in the Sahara

Belgian AI scientists are advocating *against* the use of AI in academia. “If independent thinking is no longer encouraged at university, where would it?” apache.be/2025/10/24/b...

My PhD student Shaimaa was in @thebookseller.com, talking about our appeal to the UK government to help her get here and take up her place. Thanks to @commapress.bsky.social and @outspokenpress.bsky.social for their support: www.thebookseller.com/news/publish...

For all of the educators trying to deal with AI, I did a deep dive in early June and these are the four articles I decided to assign to my students. 1. This is the longest of the bunch, but so wonderfully comprehensive. www.technologyreview.com/2025/05/20/1...

It's time for some visuals!!! 🔥Burning Swamps🔥 has a cover. Out this fall with @cambridgeup.bsky.social #envhist #skystorians #PeatSky #energysky

I am completely floored by this. What an honour! Thank you everyone involved @asleuki.bsky.social and congrats to Matt and William.

Very honoured that "Saharan Winds" is shortlisted for the ASLE-UK book prize for #ecocriticism and environmental humanities: asle.org.uk/2025-asle-uk... #WesternSahara

#Marruecos quiso legitimar su ocupación del #SaharaOccidental con el rodaje de #TheOdyssey de #ChristopherNolan y, en su lugar, ha hecho más visible su ilegalidad y violación sistemática de derechos humanos contra el pueblo saharaui. #TheOdysseyOnStolenLand #FreeWesternSahara

Imagine shooting in occupied Palestine and paying Israel for it? Well, that’s more or less what they are doing in occupied Western Sahara with “the odyssey”, where @christophernolan.bsky.social have been making richer the occupying country, Morocco 😡 (Also, matt damon zendaya and tom holland)

Glad to see @theguardian.com covering this story on Christopher Nolan filming in an illegally occupied territory www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j... #WesternSahara

Legitimizing an illegal invasion and human rights violations is hardly the best publicity for #TheOdyssey by #ChristopherNolan. So denounces Mamine Hachimi, a Sahrawi journalist and activist in the occupied Western Sahara, in @middleeasteye-rss.bsky.social. 👉 www.middleeasteye.net/news/sahrawi...

Private Eye jokes now 'criminal' as the magazine hits back at dumbass cops Police nonsense over Palestine Action proscription continues as Ian Hislop jokingly bemoans officers never having heard of Private Eye www.thecanary.co/trending/202...

Really disappointing that Christopher Nolan is filming 'The Odyssey' in an illegally occupied territory: festivalsahara.org/en/news/fisa... (From @fisaharafilmfest.bsky.social)

A reminder about these fellowships, open to early career scholars (c. 7 years from PhD) based in any ODA-recipient country where the British Council operates. Deadline 28 July.

Role at a great organisation doing really interesting and important work!

In BBC coverage, mentions of Israeli and Palestinians deaths competed for space since 7th October. That's despite far more Palestinian deaths. There's one exception - a huge spike in the mentions of Palestinian deaths in early April. The reason for this should disturb you.

Short thread on Yvette Cooper's decision to ban Palestine Action. 🧵

It's our open day today and I'm on strike with @ucuedinburgh.bsky.social. Management plans to cut £140 million are opportunistic, misguided and wrong, and will harm the future of the university. Read our Joint Unions Financial Working Group blog: www.ucuedinburgh.org.uk/blog/2eppzf7...

we've got a co-authored piece in the latest volume of The American Journal of Public Health: 'The Ongoing Environmental Destruction and Degradation of Gaza: The Resulting Public Health Crisis' ajph.aphapublications.org/doi/full/10....

How do I find people on here? 🧐

Unbelievably delighted to be on this list! Hoping it can help raise awareness of British corporate involvement in #WesternSahara among a radical, politically-engaged British public

Thank you so much! What an honour!

Good morning bluesky! Looking forward to connecting with old pals from Twitter and making new connections here.
